DURINe the entire history OF the United
States of America since the date of the first
Congress, no man ever had better right to
a seat in the United States Senate than
Hon. David Turpie, Senator elect from the
State OF Indiana. RumOr has it that an
effort will be made by Republican Senators
to defraud the Indiana Senator out of mis-
seat. That some of them are capable of
perpetuating the infamy goes without say
ing that all of them will join in the con-
spjracy. is vet to be demonstrated.

little Excitement Cansed by the Ap,
pOintment of an Indiana Man.
WASHINGTON, December 6.-The princi-
pal topic of conversation this morning
among members on the floor of the House
was the change made last evening by Clerk
Clark in the Office of Journal Clerk. John
c. Robertson, who was appointed to sue
coed Mr.. Smith as Journal CLERK, took the
oath Of Office this morning, and after
consultation with his predecessor, began
at once the discharge of his duties. He is
from Indianapolis, was formerly Judge
OF the Indiana Circuit Court, and held for
a time the position of Journal Clerk to
the State Senate. 1t is rumored that Mr..
Smith will make fight for Reinstatement,
and that q Michigan Democrat member
will offer a resolution providing for All
inquiry into the vague statements that
have been made to the effect that the
change was the result of promise by the
Indiana Democrats to support the Clerk of
the House in his candidacy for reelection
il the Office Of Journal Clerk was given to
an Indiana man, and that Don NJ. Dickin-
son had demanded Smiths removal.
When Mr.. Clark, the clerk of the House,
was spoken to on the subject this morning
he declared positively that Mr.. Dickinson
had not communicated in any way with
him in regard to the matter. He had in
tended to make the change last session, he
said, bat had deferred action for various
reasons. No member of the Indiana dele
CATION had been consulted upon the ap-
polntment or knew Of his intention to
make change save Representative Mat
son, who bad been requested to furnish
some information concerning Mr.. Robert
sons record. Mr., Clark denied in the
strongest terms that there had been any
understanding between himself and the
Indiana delegation relative to his candi-
dscy for the Office OF clerk. In all OF these
statements he WAS corroborsted by Repre-
sentative Holman and other Indiana DEM
ocratlc representatives..

stated that the stock of silver dollars in
circulation steadily increases. and the de-
mand for small coins aud notes is so great
that the Treasury is able to fad use for q

demand for money shows that business
everywhere is active and prosperous, and
that under Democratic administration the
country israpidly developing its wonder

Napoleon Bonaparte as a Colorado grass

EVANSVILLE, Ind, December The
prospective candidacy of Colonel Charles

State, and especially in this city, the home
of the distinguished diplomat. The views

uniting upon either Voorhees, or Gray has
become impracticable and impossible. 1t
is given out this evening that brisk can
vass will be inaugurated by the friends of
Colonel DENLY, and they have confidence
of controlling the delegation from this
State, which will necessarily have strong
influence in the National Convention. The
views of Minister DENLY upon the tariff,
silver and the disposition of the surplus
are in thorough accord with the Western
Democracy, which renders him all the
more available as candidate for the Vics-
Presidency.

OLD Murat Halstead, who tries to show
that the Southern negro is oppressed by the
white race down South, does not see
things as does the Philadelphia Press, q
Republican sheet, the editor of which, sur
veying the South, says:
If figures are wanting to show the prog
ress of the race, il can be said that the
negroes of Georgia pay taxes on property
assessed at over SIS 600, 600; those in South
Carolins pay taxes on $4,000, 600 worth of
property, and those in Louisiana are as
sessed at $50, 900, 600 worth. But better
than all these proofs OF material prosperity
are the evidences that the race is advanc.
ing intellectually and morally.
Here you have it that the negroes OF the
South, under Democratic rule, are improv-
ing, that their progress is material, intel
lectUal and moral, and it is this progress
that makes them vote the Democratic
ticket. And the more they improve the
more certain are they TO leave a party
that honest Republicans by the thousand
throughout the North are abandoning.

Our candidates are j. j. Parsons of

those pertaining to thy affairs Of the
office which he seeks, unbiased, yet

ship but will say he has been A No. /.
His popularity at home can easily be
learned by inquiripg of any of his
neighbors. As we said before, it
would be hard to find better timber
for County Commissioners, and it is
not every day that the people of any
county have opportunity to place two
such good men in that office.
For COUNTY AUDITORS,
Messrs. r. 2. Gillespie of Kingsley,
and E. L. Jones of Harmony, are the
Republican nominees. The office of
Auditor is an important one. and this
fact the party had in view when it
made its nominations. Mr.. Gillespie
is man of good education, a first.
class accountant and just the man
wanted in that office. While his col.
league on the ticket, Mr.. Jones, is
shrewd, level. headed gentleman, and
will make an excellent County Audi
tor. The people need have no hesi.
fancy in supporting these gentlemen,
for they will find they have elected
the right men for the right place.
9. H. CHURCH,
Our candidate for Jury Commissioner,
is Hickory township citizen, and a
good one, too. He has held the office
of Coroner, and made a good official.
He will be equally good as a Jury
Commissioner. Squire Church's elec.
iiOu is foregone conclusion, as there
are two to elect, and be has no opposi.
tion.
This completes the ticket. 1t is be.
fore the people for their support. And
the people can make no mistake in
electing it from top to bottom. We
feel confident il will be done, but it
needs work. Victories are not won
by staying away from the polls, or
being over sanguiue. Get out every
vote, Republicans, and vote the ticket
straight. 1t is necessary to do this to

alart to snatch victory when they
can. Go to work now and keep at it
till the polls close, and victory will
